Seymour Crawford (Cavan-Monaghan, Fine Gael)

I join with my Ulster colleagues, the Tánaiste and Deputy Ó Caoláin, in wishing the former First and Deputy First Ministers well on their first day off and for the future. I would gladly hear the Tánaiste saying the nursing homes fair deal Bill will be dealt with before the summer. When will it be published? Will there be a proper opportunity for discussion of it? In the meantime, will interim measures be taken to deal with the crisis?
